Long-Haul Trucker YRC to Exit Next-Day Market
YRC Worldwide is proposing changes to its long-haul freight network that will speed shipments and take long-haul carrier YRC out of the next-day freight market.
The change of operations, which must be approved by the Teamsters union, would be the most significant step yet in the restructuring of YRC launched last year by CEO James Welch and President Jeff Rogers.
“We’re going to have YRC focus on long-haul,” Rogers said in an interview Monday. That means eliminating the next-day Velocity network YRC launched in 2008.
With that decision, the long-haul carrier will no longer compete with sister companies in the YRC regional group for same-day or next-day freight.
“We’ve got Holland, New Penn and Reddaway, the best next-day carriers in their footprint,” Rogers said. “We’re going to let them do what they do best.”
Restructuring its long-haul network will help YRC load more freight direct to more points, reducing the potential for damage, building density and speeding shipments.
“We’re going to eliminate a lot of handling, reduce several thousand handles a day,” said Rogers. “We want to be the best two- to five-day carrier, period.”
The present network is designed to handle 70,000 shipments per day but YRC is handling on average only about 48,000, the company said in its proposal. YRC will not close any terminals, Rogers said, but change their function.
For example, a distribution center might become an end-of-the-line terminal. The redesign will concentrate freight flow through a smaller number of distribution centers.
“We’re going to increase our emphasis on the corridor hub,” Rogers said.
The company has about 300 terminals and it trying to auction inactive surplus facilities shuttered after the 2009 merger of Yellow Transportation and Roadway. YRC plans to shut down 60 “road domiciles” at end-of-the-line terminals.
“We’re moving a lot of the drivers back to the distribution centers,” said Rogers.
The two proposed changes of operations were sent to the Teamsters union with a request for a hearing on or about Feb. 28. They are available here and here.

The changes show YRC plans to take a number of distribution centers and terminals that have been part of the company’s so-called “Velocity” next-day network and make them part of the long-haul network.
Jeff Rogers, YRC Inc.’s president, said in an interview that the company’s leadership thinks the company’s regional carriers — New Holland, Roadway and Holland — are better suited to the job.
“I’m a firm believer in finding out what you can be really good at and that’s what you do, and we can be a really good long-haul carrier,” Rogers said. “I don’t think the next-day market is where we should play.”
He said the restructuring, which he hopes to implement by April, will streamline the process of moving freight, reducing the number of times it’s moved or handled. That would speed up delivery times and reduce damage or losses.
None of the terminals are closing, but many are being scaled down, which means job cuts, Rogers said.

Parent company YRC Worldwide is rebuilding its financial health after the recession shook the company, pushing it close to bankruptcy. Dramatic financial moves — including deals with investors, large stock issuances and concessions by union workers — kept the company rolling.
Early this month, YRC sold the former Roadway Corp. headquarters in Akron, Ohio, affecting 260 jobs. Rogers said at the time that some of the jobs were to be eliminated, others moved elsewhere in Ohio and others moved outside the state, including to Overland Park.

Wenn es wieder charttechnischbedingt hoch geht, dann kommt das Konfetti und die "ich liebe Euch alle" Mentalität wieder zum Vorschein.
ATLANTA (dpa-AFX) - Von wegen Rezessionsängste: Der US-Paketdienst UPS (UPS Aktie) hat so gut zu tun wie noch nie. Im vierten Quartal 2011 beförderte der Konkurrent der Deutschen Post (Deutsche Post Aktie) mehr als 1,1 Milliarden Sendungen - ein Plus von 4 Prozent gegenüber dem Vorjahreszeitraum. Wegen Weihnachten sind in dem Quartal besonders viele Pakete und Briefe unterwegs.
Der Umsatz verbesserte sich in der Folge um 6 Prozent auf 14,2 Milliarden Dollar (10,8 Mrd Euro). Konzernchef Scott Davis sprach am Dienstag von "Rekordzahlen". Allerdings gab es einen Wermutstropfen: Pensionskosten drückten auf den Gewinn, der um beinahe ein Drittel auf 725 Millionen Dollar abrutschte. Die Aktie lag im frühen New Yorker Handel um ein knappes Prozent im Minus.
Logistikkonzerne gelten als wichtiges Barometer für die Konjunktur. Sie arbeiten für so gut wie alle Branchen und für Privatkunden. UPS-Finanzchef Kurt Kuehn erwartet für das laufende Jahr ein "gemischtes Wachstum rund um die Welt". Im wichtigen Heimatmarkt USA werde es "moderat" aufwärts gehen. Hier hatte die Wirtschaft angezogen und die Arbeitslosigkeit nachgelassen./das/DP/
